This regime is doing everything it can to silence anyone who speaks against the Israeli apartheid regime. It is ludicrous! Why don’t we see how Marco Rubio would feel if he and his family are sent back to Cuba?! Everyone is afforded due process under the US Constitution. And maybe we need to replace the judges who are going along with this tyranny. It’s all so shameful!

I agree with the oppression, and lack of humanity among those supporting this outrage, but, as for judges, the only judges I have seen "going along" are the Immigration judges, who are part of the DOJ.

Real judges, part of the actual judiciary, have not, AFAIK, done anything like that, so far.

I was mainly thinking about the Judge in Louisiana where the abducted have been taken. If Trump and his team are “shopping” for Judges (which I’ve heard in multiple reports) then there is no balance justice. That was my concern. Not judges in general.

I hadn't heard that any of those judges had made a ruling as of yet. Do you have a link?

You can see from the wording of the link that it's about an immigration judge, not a 'real' judge. The distinction not only matters, but is crucial. Unfortunately, many are often not aware of this difference, and the reporting sources seem to not always make it clear. But thanks for your interest in this important matter.

This is getting more and more disgusting. Are all those working there have no conscience? Are they All Fascists?

Where's the petition for the release of Mahdawi?

SHAME on the whole Trump administration, universities and the Zionist hate groups, Betar and Canary Mission, for weaponizing what they call antisemitism in the name of Fascism.

So, right after Mahdawi swore allegiance to the Constitution and the rule of law, he was arrested on behalf of a regime that ignores those very same basic tenets of freedom. What oath do ICE police have to take?

Poooor Elon and Public Retribution

After all the wrongful firings of the civil service, the attacks of waste fraud and abuse, the secretive sharing of federal databases with the Nazi party, Elon is facing the financial consequences with the disastrous first quarter earnings report of Tesla which is his primary wealth giving asset

PROTESTS ARE WORKING BY WE THE PEOPLE If were not for interest earned by cash and payments by other EV manufacturers Tesla would be in the red for almost $1B 71% reduction in earnings comparing 2024 quarter to this quarter Everyone that the Orange Cheeto touches is somehow destroyed in some way They all hope that they will be different but it never happens

Must see 7minute Maddow segment showing what the people think of the Nazis and Elon(remember the salute?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wU23jm417-k

For what it’s worth the brilliant Nikola Tesla died penniless in New York in January 1943

They are coming for all of us who are against this genocide or critical of the convicted felon and if you think you and I are safe from this Gestapo-like system, then wait till they are cuffing you in plain clothes and taking you without charging you with a crime.

I'm glad to see that the judiciary is finally getting itself together and trying to stop all of this unconstitutional behavior. I will be watching to see if any of these judges will be able to enforce their orders. That is the next test.
